About Us

Victoria, BC, Canada
This blog began as a modern "baby book" for our first child, Finlay, who was born in December of 2010. The recent addition of Seamus, born in January of 2013, has meant continued efforts to put into words and pictures his early years. We also use this forum to catalog our family life: two loving partners, two beautiful kids, car-free, child-centred, attachment-focused, with a love of food and health thrown into the mix!

Thanks-for-giving, Nanoose-style

For Thanksgiving, we went to Lyndze's Aunt and Uncle's house in Nanoose Bay.  The drive up was stormy and the first night was rainy with high winds.  The next morning, we woke up and there was a warm, sunny and beautiful day!  We went to an organic farm called Nanoose Edibles.  There were chickens and a rooster, kale and raspberries still growing, and acres of walking through flowers, fruit trees, and a well-groomed farm. We took some pictures along the way.

 Here is Tyler walking through a field of sunflowers.  Below are some chickens and a rooster.

 She loves having her picture taken (no she doesn't...)
"Ew!  Toys!"
 Tyler:  "Put that back."  Lyndze:  "NO!"
 Now this is a toy!  Tyler loved the swing.
 Really loved it!
Lyndze doesn't like swings so much.
We also went to Coombs and played in the stores there.  Tyler's concern is that as he gets older he may lose his hair: he is searching for alternatives.
 Some belly dancing?

We had a really fun day.  The dinner was also very tasty and there was lots of great company.  What a wonderful weekend!
